Today is Good Friday and therefor only two days are left until Easter. Oh dear, I’ve always been incredibly excited at Saturday evening when I knew, tomorrow is the annual easter egg search. Nowadays there’s no hidden chocolate anymore – instead we have a nice, big family brunch on which I’m as excited as earlier on the egg search. For this year I’m going to come up with something special. Matching to easter I will serve some so-called New York Egg Creams. In Europe these are quite unfamiliar (as far as I know) but in New York they are a real classic. Now, whoever is thinking “uuh, even more eggs on easter” is wrong. Completely wrong! You won’t find any eggs in this fizzy soda-milk-chocolate-drink. But better see and test it yourself:

How you do it:1. Prepare sparkling water with the practical SodaStream Machine. Press 3 times! Put in a cool place!
2. Fill 2cm of milk into the glasses.3. Very SLOWELY add the mineral water to within 2.5cm of the top of the glass to get a foamy head.Important: Make sure to drizzle the water down the side of the glas. Do NOT pour directly into the milk.
4. Add 2 Tablespoons of chocolate syrup (if you have, use the traditional Fox’s u-bet chocolate syrup)
5. Take a spoon. Stir around slowly from the bottom to mix the milk-soda with the syrup.
6. Enjoy your New York Egg Cream.
